Two smallish banks were shut down this week, bringing the total of failed banks in 2010 up to 127.

The FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.) announced earlier today that they had taken over Haven Trust Bank Florida (Florida) and North County Bank (Washington).

Haven Trust Bank Florida had approximately $148.6 million in assets and $133.6 million in deposits, while North County Bank had $288.8 million in assets and $276.1 million in deposits at the time of failure.

The two failures are expected to cost the FDIC's deposit insurance fund a little over $100 million combined.

Florida has been one of the hardest hit areas in terms of bank failures, as a total of 24 banks have failed in the state during the first nine months of the year.
